Andy Richter from David Letterman show.
Loved him.
Andy Griffith Show and Dukes of Hazzard
I know these are on as reruns but a show like one of these would be awesome to have now.
Almost Gobbler Day. Who is cooking and who is going out to dinner? Myself cooking. (sm)
We usually have everyone bring a dish of some sorts. Large family, probably about 30 plus. Set up 3 extra tables in the garage for smokers and cardplayers and have a great day stuffing ourselves.
Looking for different side dishes, suggestions anyone?
2:55 am Only 1 miner survived!
Now they have confirmed that only the 1 young miner survived and he is in critical condition. This just is a horrible tragedy on tragedy with these families being so elated for hours.
Now more than ever, these families need as many prayers as possible to get through this horrible tragedy.
Andy Garcia!
Andy Rooney talked about that very same thing

Got so excited about my fantasy, the name did not make it...Andy Garcia! nm

If you can show proof you did this work for them, they then have to show they paid it in order

I wish you were in Iowa!
Take a deep breath. Unless you've got a USB monitor, which are really not at all common, the place you plug in your monitor should have nothing to do with where you plug in your foot pedal. You are likely looking at a bunch of "pin" connectors and assuming that they all plug into the same place. They don't. Usually, even with Dells, they're kinda marked as to what they're for. There should be a a sort of square where the monitor plugs in and it's shaped like a rhombus. I'm guessing that you've got a game-port foot pedal, and you'll need an adapter so that you can plug that into a USB port.

1.99 in SE Iowa today...I'm happy! (nm)
For Iowa their 12 cpl is good. IHP usually offers...
11 cpl to contractors. If you're from Iowa IHP should be one you recognize, their statewide.
The local service in Waterloo, pays their MTs 6 cpl, ridiculous. Hospitals paying hourly are still around $9 hourly.
It's the midwest, for those others who don't know but cost of living is nothing near other areas of the country.
Personally, I work for a national on the east coast and make 10 cpl employee status, far better than anything I've seen in my home state.
Well, you must live in Po-Dunk, Iowa, and not
you can survive on less. Having one's own account is NOT the same as being a 100% full-time employee, which is what I am.
You head-up-your-backside, horn-tootin' heifers who think you invented this profession, and are so high'n'mighty that you feel fit to tell everyone else how to live their lives and whether or not to stay in MT make me laugh. Do you know what 'faster & better' is gunna add up to in the not-so-distant future? Less pay per line, NOT more money.
Dream on, Bossy.
I'm the 23rd from Iowa to sign. nm

Iowa is dry today, flurries yesterday, maybe hit 50
Iowa & Nebraska Medical Directories available
I hope I am allowed to post this here. I have an Iowa Medical Directory and a Nebraska Medical Directory which I was forced to purchase to do transcription for a certain company. They are no longer needed. If anybody can use them, please let me know.
Iowa/Nebraska Medical Directories
The Iowa Medical Directory is October 2006 and Nebraska is December 2006.
Iowa and Nebraska Medical Directories
The directories contain adresses, phone numbers, etc on each medical provider, clinics, and hospitals in the state.
Yes - I work for a small company in Iowa and

yer welcome. with the advent of computers, it's MUCH easier here in Iowa to get a coding job at
The fields have changed around, kinda. Stay home and CODE, not type.
Well, since he does most of the cooking..
Maybe let him make their dinner and you make yours! That's what I would do. I would not give up my meals for two spoiled rotten kids ;)
weird..if you look up the profiles, the "guy from Iowa" is from New York..wonder if he origina
came from Iowa? I don't think Guy will win..thats too easy. It better NOT be that snotty Carissa..that is one show I'd NEVER watch. I like the "Iowa" guy.
cooking in crock pot right now
Either beef stew meat OR a chuck, whatever. One can cream of celery, one can cream of mushroom and one can french onion. Don't have do do a thing. Delicious
I'm cooking. Daughter and son-in-law,
son, husband and myself will be spending Thanksgiving together (after my son and I get off work).
Yes, and I'm the one cooking the turkey
Don't think my guests would appreciate a "tofu turkey". I will do the whole traditional meal and those who choose not to eat the turkey will still have plenty.
How do you get rid of cooking smells?
I've about had it with cooking any beef or pork at all. Even cooking with hot oil.
I cannot get the lingering odors out. I wash the pots and pans, put up the leftovers immediately, clean the stove and all surfaces but it just lingers.
Does anyone have a solution?
Ever try cooking a meal in someone else's kitchen? sm
You know how to cook, but have a tough time finding where everything is kept in that kitchen so it takes a while longer. You could cook the same thing in your own familiar kitchen in half the time. This goes for MT, too. It takes a long time, even for those of us who have been transcribing half our lives, to get used to new formats, new work type codes, new voices, and learning idiosyncrasies for each and every dictator. It takes time--a few months or more. Be patient, and the line counts will surely add up as you become more familiar with the account.
son cooking steak and shrimp
what a treat. Someone else cooking for a change.
Make my own. Cooking's a hobby.
I'd almost like to be a caterer or chef, but I don't like working evenings or weekends. LOL
MIL is cooking it- IN- I did it for the first time last year, also IN-

Well, I messed that up, meant to say DH is cooking

We're cooking out today....sm
went to the zoo yesterday and did yard chores.
LOL! Possibly my husband's cooking?
You should see some of my personal medical reports other people have transcribed. Jeesh, can I sue as a patient for such poorly transcribed reports? Thanks for the laugh...
round up also
Just noticed that they also round up if it is .50 or above. So maybe this evens things out.
Meat cooking is harder, IMHO
Remebering my childhood as an animal eater, I think it is harder cooking for meat eaters and way more expensive than vegetarian foods.
Take turns w/ menu (and cooking and cleaning..)
I grew up in a house w/ a six-pack of kids and if you didn't like what was for dinner, too #$$# bad, will give it to your brother lol.
What are you cooking for 4th of July? Recipes encouraged please!

oh the QA merry-go-round!
Don't be afraid of it. It's really hard to mess up Oriental cooking.
Here are the links to the recipes that I printed off of Google. (I love the Internet! No more cookbooks, only Google for recipes.) I cheated on the plum sauce by buying a jar because our plums aren't quite ripe yet. Buy the egg roll skins instead of trying to make your own, too.

For the fried rice, you can use any type of rice. I use brown basmati or jasmine rice mostly. You can also throw in extra vegetables and leftover meats (pork, beef, chicken) to make a meal out of it instead of a side dish. I like those Oriental pea pods, bok choy, water chestnuts, baby corn, and Chinese cabbage.

I'm going to combine and modify the eggroll recipes so I have shrimp/pork egg rolls. I use canola oil instead of vegetable, peanut, or sesame oil. I don't care for sesame seeds or bamboo sprouts, so I add extra water chestnuts. Use frozen or fresh instead of canned crab or shrimp. Use diced, boneless pork chops instead of ground pork or sausage.

Usually I just have coffee. Sometimes I'll have oatmeal. Today, DH is cooking again!
We're having breakfast "hash" with scrambled eggs, ham, hash browns, cheese, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, and red pepper in one skillet. Whole wheat toast and chipotle Tabasco.
Oh, me too!!! When I got my first microwave (very expensive) we all watched the bacon cooking.

I've tried mayo cooking fish - DELISH (sm)
for cholesterol-watching husband, JUST DON'T TELL HIM - he'll never know

I think it'll be Make-you-own night. I don't feel like cooking either. (nm)

year-round school! nm

I just had a go-round with my 11yo this morning
She has been told more than once, no makeup - yet there she was this morning wearing eye makeup. I took it off her myself, which she did not like at all. Lip gloss I can live with but the rest will have to wait. She tells me "third graders at school wear makeup," and "the school lets us," to which I replied, 'their mother is not your mother, the school is not your mother, and you are not wearing makeup - end of discussion.' Don't know if you all have the problem with your young daughters trying to "push your buttons" like ours does (by this I mean she says/does things purposely to get a rise out of my husband or me, but mostly me). I have caught onto this manipulativeness, and now when it happens I remind myself I am the one in control, that I need to stay calm, and then I mete out the circumstances. Funny, but my calmness actually seems to infuriate her! Apropos, don't you think?
those round bulbous things
I think you'll find that a great many breast augmentation procedures (you'll see them all through the www.implantinfo.com website) have that particular appearance. Go back and choose to look at the pictures from physicians rather than patients.
I think cost has a lot to do with it. The more expensive the procedure, the greater the likelihood of a more natural appearance.
I have a Dell Inspiron and there is a round
hole in the back just like they have on a desktop. I think it is a PS2. Mine has a picture of a mouse and keyboard underneath the hole. The foot pedal depends on what kind it is. I use a game port but don't have a game port so have to use an adaptor to convert it to a USB. I have a serial port which is 9-pin and it is right side my keyboard connection.
Homeschool, so year-round fun! nm
